Description
This modern apartment is situated on the fifth floor of a meticulously maintained apartment complex located in the Haverweerd district of Soest. The residence offers a unique opportunity for high-rise living characterized by a completely modernized interior and a liberating, unobstructed view over the surrounding greenery. The property has been tastefully renovated in recent years, featuring a contemporary kitchen, a luxurious bathroom, and a stylish finish throughout. As a result, the apartment is delivered in move-in condition, allowing new residents to settle in immediately without the need for further renovations or improvements.
Access to the apartment is facilitated by a central entrance equipped with an intercom system and a lift, ensuring easy and comfortable access to the fifth floor. Upon reaching the gallery level, one enters the apartment via the private entrance. The hallway immediately provides a sense of order and practicality, housing the meterkast and offering generous wardrobe space. This area serves as a functional transition zone before entering the main living areas.
The spacious living room serves as the central heart of the home. It is a bright and inviting space that benefits from an abundance of natural daylight, thanks to the large window panes located on the balcony side. These windows frame the view, creating a picturesque backdrop of the green surroundings. The layout of the living room is versatile, offering ample opportunities to create a comfortable and relaxing seating area that takes full advantage of the light and scenery.
Adjacent to the living room is a separate dining room. This distinct space is designed to accommodate a large dining table, making it ideal for hosting dinner parties or enjoying family meals. The dining area stands in open connection with the living room, creating a fluid social space. Like the living room, it benefits from large windows that ensure plenty of light and offer the same soothing views of the green environment, enhancing the dining experience.
From the living room, one has direct access to the balcony. Situated on the fifth floor, this outdoor space provides a sense of privacy and openness. It offers a free view over the trees and green facilities that surround the complex, allowing residents to enjoy the outdoors in a tranquil setting. It is a perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink while watching the sunset over the greenery.
The modern kitchen is a standout feature of the apartment. It is executed in a dark color scheme, complemented by a sleek countertop. The kitchen is well-equipped with various built-in appliances, including an induction cooktop with integrated extraction, an oven, and a dishwasher. A large window in the kitchen provides pleasant daylight and a view of the outside, making cooking a more enjoyable activity. The design is both functional and aesthetic, meeting the needs of the modern home cook.
A hallway leading from the living room provides access to the wet areas and sleeping quarters. This includes the bathroom, the separate toilet, the master bedroom, and a practical utility room. The spacious master bedroom is located on the balcony side of the apartment. It features a large window that ensures the room is filled with natural light and offers a view over the green surroundings.

The second bedroom is currently in use as a practical wardrobe room or utility room. It houses the setup for the washing machine and dryer as well as the electric boiler. Despite its current use as a storage and laundry facility, the space offers ample storage room and can easily be converted back into a second bedroom if desired. This flexibility makes the apartment suitable for various household compositions, from singles and couples to those needing a home office.
The modern bathroom is designed with luxury and comfort in mind. It is equipped with a spacious walk-in shower, a vanity unit with storage space, a illuminated mirror, and a design radiator. The finish is contemporary and clean, creating a spa-like atmosphere in the home. The separate toilet room is also modern, featuring a wall-hung toilet and mechanical ventilation, ensuring hygiene and comfort.
In addition to the living space, the apartment includes a private storage unit on the ground floor. This storage room is equipped with lighting, power outlets, and its own electricity meter, providing a secure space for storing bicycles, seasonal items, or other belongings.
Regarding technical specifications, the apartment is fitted with insulating glazing, known as HR-glas, to improve energy efficiency. Hot water is supplied via an electric boiler, while heating is provided through a block heating system. This system ensures consistent warmth throughout the apartment. The property is connected to a fiber optic network, ensuring high-speed internet access. Mechanical ventilation is present to maintain a healthy indoor climate. The electrical group box has been renewed, adding to the safety and modernity of the installation. Despite the building dating back to 1968, the apartment holds an energy label C, reflecting the quality of the upgrades.
The Vereniging van Eigenaren, or Homeowners Association, is active and professionally managed. The monthly VvE contribution is set at 265 euros. Additionally, an advance payment of 37.50 euros per month is charged for the heating costs. The VvE is financially healthy, evidenced by the presence of a multi-year maintenance plan and active reserves for future maintenance. Transparency is a key feature of this VvE. It has been announced that a major maintenance project will start in 2026. This project will include work on the facades, concrete structures, balcony railings or balustrades, painting, and fire safety provisions. Preparations for this project are already underway within the association, ensuring that the complex remains in excellent condition for the future.
The location in Haverweerd is central within Soest. The immediate vicinity offers a wide range of amenities, including shops, supermarkets, public transport links, sports facilities, and various green areas.
